teapaw.org/ls_meeks/status/128452… After a weekend of talking heads stating what the former president should have done, my mind turned to an incredible human being, the one known for promoting "good trouble," the one and only @repjohnlewis. I need more "good trouble! #TheLightWeCarry
Rest in peace ⁦@repjohnlewis⁩ We will miss you, but the lessons you poured into us will remain.

It shouldn’t be normal for any politician to meet with a Neo-Nazi/White Supremacist and a. Not know it when that anti-Semite is a public figure and b. not denounce that person’s hateful statements.

Since the horrific attack on Paul early Friday, we have been deluged with thousands of messages conveying concern, prayers and warm wishes. We are most grateful. Thanks to the excellent team at @ZSFGCare, Paul is making steady progress on what will be a long recovery process.

The new state law on concealed gun carrying restrictions that prioritizes safety is going into effect tomorrow. This morning, I joined @GovKathyHochul and @NYCMayor for an announcement on the city’s plan to restrict guns in Times Square + raise awareness about the rules.

Protecting the Americans with Disabilities Act will require ppl w/ #disabilities to VOTE. Would this Supreme Court say disability rights are “deeply rooted” in American history and tradition & uphold disability rights under the 14th Amdt? Don't take that chance. #CriptheVote
